Extra White has neutral-cool undertones. A bright, clean white with very minimal undertone. The slightest cool lean keeps it feeling fresh without being icy.
The undertone difference is worth paying attention to. While they are close in overall appearance, the different undertones mean they may diverge in certain lighting.
